WHERE TO FIND THE BEST WRAPPING PAPER

I’ve always enjoyed the act of gift-giving. I really love hunting down the perfect present for someone. It’s fun for me. I put a lot of thought into every step the process, including the very last one: the gift wrap. I think of the wrapping paper as the icing on the cake – and despite the fact that we all know the wrapping paper is headed straight for the trash, it’s still well-worth the time and effort.

With that said, it should come as no surprise that it brings me great joy when I come across a really pretty paper (like this one) – and lately, that’s happening quite often. There’s lots of beautiful wrapping papers out there. You just have to know where to look. Here, my favorite sources.

OKL never disappoints. Their holiday shop is perfectly curated to include anything and everything for the season – including wrapping paper. Year after year, this is where I find some of the prettiest papers. This year is no exception. This year, I’m loading up on plenty of ribbon (this one and this one) and lots of this green marbled paper. It’s so beautiful and feels perfectly luxurious for the holidays.

If you’re looking for something totally unique, Minted is a great resource. The design marketplace features wrapping paper designed by different artists from all over the country. My personal favorite is this watercolor paper. It’s artful and fun. For the holidays, it’s perfect for children’s gifts. However, it’s also one that would totally work year-round for any other gifts.

There’s lots of goodies to love over at Peep’s, including the wrapping paper. Sold as a set of 10 sheets (instead of a roll), each of the styles features a hand-drawn illustration by Creative Director Loulou Baker. This year’s holiday paper features characters from The Nutcracker. It’s a perfect option for kiddos.
